Up and down

MG was in a lot of pain before she finally fell asleep last night around 10:00. She was having muscle spasms so Valium seemed to help that. She also was acting a little psychotic and I think a lot of it was all the narcotics and anesthesia. 
Thankfully she slept most of the night and is a little better this morning. She is hurting and we tried to go to the playroom (see pic) but it was too much and she threw up.

Hopefully she will improve as the day goes on and we can be discharged soon. She seems to do better when we get out of here I feel like that helps her mentally.

She has asked lots of questions, wondering why she has surgeries, how the doctor did the surgery, where are her stitches, what do they look like, and on and on. I explained that her back is curvy and the rods and doctors and surgery help it to be straighter and to help her grow. I think we are entering a new phase of her being older and being so aware of what's going on.

Thanks so much for the prayers and we are very thankful another surgery is behind us.
